This paper reports the design, construction, and testing of a replica of the human arm, which aims to be dynamically as well as kinematically accurate. The arm model is actuated with McKibben pneumatic artificial muscles, and controlled by a special purpose digital signal processing system designed to simulate spinal neural networks in real time. An artificial muscle spindle has also been designed and tested. Design and test data are reviewed, and the paper describes how we hope to use the system to improve our understanding of the reflexive control of human movement and posture.
本文报告了一个旨在实现动态和运动学精确的人体手臂复制品的设计、构建和测试。该手臂模型由麦基布气动人工肌肉驱动，并由一个专门设计用于实时模拟脊髓神经网络的数字信号处理系统控制。还设计并测试了一种人工肌梭。文中回顾了设计和测试数据，并描述了我们希望如何利用该系统来增进我们对人体运动和姿势反射控制的理解。
